In the solemn and imposing Golden Throne Hall, Emperor Long Xunyi sat on the dragon throne, one hand elegantly supporting his chin, his sharp eyes emitting a cold light, "Doctor Zhong, what were you just saying?"
"Your Majesty, I implore you to send Miss An. With her medical skills, I think no one is more suitable than her. After all, doesn't she consider herself the nineteenth concubine? Then she is the only one who can go to the border this time." Doctor Zhong bowed his head, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his gloomy eyes.
Yesterday, he heard that An Tingyu was going to treat the Empress Dowager. Although she hadn't started yet, Doctor Zhong didn't believe An Tingyu had any medical skills at all. She must have done that to cover up her lies. After all, An Tingyu had said that she was the nineteenth concubine, and even the nineteenth emperor. However, An Tingyu had been treated by him since she was a child. Even if she had become smarter now, what would it matter? He didn't believe that An Tingyu was the nineteenth concubine. However, he wanted to meet the nineteenth concubine, but unfortunately, his unfilial disciple Yang Qingwei refused to reveal a word. As a result, he still didn't know who the nineteenth concubine was. But no matter who it was, it definitely couldn't be that An Tingyu who had been useless for so long.
"The border is tense, and there's an epidemic going on, and you actually let her go?" Long Xunyi's sharp eyes turned even colder. He guessed what Doctor Zhong was thinking. But who did Doctor Zhong think An Tingyu was? He actually asked her to take this risk. Did Doctor Zhong want to die?
"Your Majesty, please do not be angry. I just think Miss An is suitable."
Long Xunyi narrowed his deep eyes slightly, and under his sleeves, he secretly clenched his fists. After a moment, he turned to An Donglin and said, "An Chengxiang, what do you think about this?"
Anton stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, if you ask me to answer from a father's perspective, then I certainly disagree. However, I am also a minister. As a minister, I should help Your Majesty solve problems. So let my daughter make the decision herself! However, she is only a minister and holds no official position. If my daughter's choice is wrong, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
"Come here, tell Miss An to come." Long Xunyi opened his red lips majestically and sternly.
At the Prime Minister's Residence, An Tingyu handed little Yunxi in her arms to Xing'er and asked her to take the child away before asking the man in front of her to sit down.
"Why are you here? Is there something wrong?" An Tingyu asked.
"Take a look at this first." Feng Yun handed a piece of silk cloth to An Tingyu. An Tingyu opened it and her brows immediately frowned.
At this time, Feng Yun continued, "This is the news that the Nether Palace just intercepted. Although the border has been strictly guarded, it has been confirmed that the border is now facing the greatest crisis. If the city is breached, I'm afraid there will be rivers of blood. The nineteenth generation said that Miss An has equal rights. Therefore, Feng Yun should also report this news to Miss An."
"So what's Aotian's plan? He has troops at the border, right?"
"Yes, about 30,000. The 19th generation has already set off for the border. As for you, the 19th generation said that it is up to you to decide. If you want to go, the Nether Palace will send someone to accompany you."
An Tingyu shrugged lazily, "I have to bring an entourage, which means I can't go alone? And since he's going, how can I not go?"
The plague is a devastating disaster for this era, so even if not for others, she must go for Jing Aotian.
"Okay, I understand. Let's gather at the city gate in half an hour. I still have something to tell Xing'er." An Tingyu said again.
"yes!"
After Fengyun left, An Tingyu walked into the room. Xing'er was feeding little Yunxi rice porridge at this time. Looking at the little Yunxi who was gradually growing, An Tingyu sighed softly and reached out to touch his little head. "Xi'er, I have to say sorry to you again, but Xi'er! You have to know that human life is very fragile. Sometimes if no one extends a hand, many lives will disappear in this world, and then the world will be left with indifference. I am not an indifferent person, so please forgive me!"
"Miss, don't worry! Ever since you developed this rice porridge, the young master will eat it obediently even when you are not at home, so he won't be hungry."
An Tingyu sighed, "I'm not worried about him being hungry, I'm worried about letting her down."
Xing'er thought that An Tingyu was talking about Xiao Yunxi, but she didn't know that An Tingyu was referring to An Tianyu.
She had clearly said that she would raise the child well, and this was the only way she could repay An Tianyu, but she always left little Yunxi aside because of some things she had to do. She felt really guilty, but she was helpless.
"Miss, are you there? Someone is coming from the palace, and the emperor is summoning you urgently." Dang Yan's voice was heard before she even entered the room.
An Tingyu was slightly stunned, and secretly wondered in her heart, could the summons at this time be due to border issues?
Because of the emperor's summons, An Tingyu had to postpone her departure. When she arrived at the Golden Throne Hall, she saw civil and military officials standing on both sides with a serious temperament. It was the first time that An Tingyu had seen such a large lineup.
"Sister An, please sit down."
As soon as they arrived, before An Tingyu could even say hello, Long Xunyi had already spoken.
Upon hearing this, An Tingyu sat down to the side, not even bothering to greet him. However, such an arrogant demeanor made His Highness, Imperial Physician Zhong, narrow his eyes again. Among all the ministers in the court, whether civil or military, even An Donglin, the Prime Minister, who could do this? But not only did An Tingyu sit down, but she was also so arrogant and rude, not even a word of thanks for the Lord's grace. Did she really think she was the nineteenth concubine, the nineteenth Lord?
In contrast to Doctor Zhong's hidden anger, Long Xunyi simply said calmly: "Sister An, there is a plague at the border, and Doctor Zhong suggested that you go to the border. What are your thoughts on this matter?"
